Hello Bloggers. Sorry I'm late but I feel like we need to talk about the most recent information coming out of the German Wings airline crash. Unless you live under a rock, you probably have hard about the Airbus A320 that crashed into the Alps last week. As time goes on we've learned lots of information about what went so wrong it left 150 people dead. We now know that the after reaching the cruising altitude, the Pilot left the cockpit to go to the bathroom. At this point, the co pilot locked the cockpit and set the autopilot to descend to 0 ft. Then, the latest information is that he accelerated into the ground during decent. All of this information about the scenario inflight comes from the black box and the flight data and voice recorder, both of which were recovered after the crash. Investegators are not sure that this was a suicide attempt by someone who clearly wasnt fit to be flying. I hoep that this situation will help change regulations on how pilots are evaluated psychiatricaly and on how many people are in the cockpit at one time. Nothing can reclaim the lifes that were lost but we can hope to prevent another tragedy like this in the future
